Big Data
Frame is a Silicon Valley based PaaS startup that needed quick data analytics on their AWS utilization. I identified their AWS instances that were running erroneously, and develop visualization tools for servers' utilization. Full report can be seen here (with permission from Frame).

OPTICAL Simulation
Optical fibers are backbone of the internet of today and new optical cable designs allow faster internet (FiOS, Google fiber, etc). We designed specialty fiber that allows 400% higher throughput that current fibers. We first used finite difference method simulation to determine most suitable fiber. We then fabricated fibers and quantify their performance showing good match with simulated results. For details see our paper in Science and subsequent press coverage.
